# mongo

After that I do some research and learned that I firstly need to start MongoDB server with mongod
command. But when I try that, I get an error again:
try that, i get an error again:

I try start mongod service on console:
# service mongod start
Failed to start mongod.service: Unit mongod.service not found.
What I need to do?
My English is not so much good, please answer this question with a simple English.

The next step for this is to make sure you have a unit file for the service.
Run this command:
ls /lib/systemd/system
If you see mongod.service, you should be good to go. If you need to know what that file should look like, take a look at this guide.
In theory, that should be the last thing you need to do to get it working. Basically, this is just a file to tell the system how to put the service into various states, and the little house-cleaning tasks that need to be carried out.
